[Breakout Session II] The Power of Partnership: Connecting the Supply Chain to Solve Sticky Problems
“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts”, and that’s true when addressing food waste in our supply chains. While individual players can make great strides within their own operations, even more work can be done through collaboration across the supply chain. Using case studies from the Pacific Coast Food Waste Commitment and U.S. Food Waste Pact, this session explores how whole chain analyses reveal surprising and non-linear opportunities for optimization and collaboration.
